    Lyrics to Aggie War Hymn
    Hullabaloo, Caneck Caneck!
    Hullabaloo, Caneck Caneck!
    (*The first verse in generally omitted and the second is sung twice.)
    All hail to dear old Texas A&M
    Rally around Maroon and White
    Good luck to the dear old Texas Aggies
    They are the boys who show the real old fight
    That good old Aggie spirit thrills us
    And makes us yell and yell and yell
    So let's fight for dear old Texas A&M
    We're goin' to beat you all to
    Chig-gar-roo-gar-rem
    Chig-gar-roo-gar-rem
    Rough Tough! Real Stuff! Texas A&M
    Good-bye to texas university
    So long to the Orange and the White
    Good luck to dear old Texas Aggies
    They are the boys that show the real old fight
    "The eyes of Texas are upon you…"
    That is the song they sing so well (Sounds like hell)
    So good-bye to texas university
    We're going to beat you all to
    Chig-gar-roo-gar-rem
    Chig-gar-roo-gar-rem
    Rough Tough! Real Stuff! Texas A&M
    Saw Varsity's horns off!
    Saw Varsity's horns off!
    Saw Varsity's horns off!
    Short!
    Varsity's horns are sawed off!
    Varsity's horns are sawed off!
    Varsity's horns are sawed off!
    Short!

    I am an Austin Native... I was burnt orange through to the bone. My son Abraham Samilpa attended A&M and is part of 2019 class. I would go to his Corp Cadet ceremonies and was very proud of the man y'all were turning him into. It was his Senior year and he invited me to a game which, for him, started in the corp assembly courtyard. All the yelling and pride made me feel good. Then I hear the A&M band marching and playing the A&M War Hymm..... I was getting hooked the right way. The game started and it was great but what really Hooked me was when everyone had their arms around the Aggie on either side... Then the swaying started.... Man that was the feeling I never got during a shorthorn game.
    Thanks for giving my son an opportunity to better himself so he wont have to work hard like me.

      Our grandson is in the Core Cadets and is a leader in the Rudders Rangers. He turned down an appointment to West Point and took a full ride scholarship to Aggie Land. Wants to be an officer in the Army like his mom and dad ( our son had 2 commands in Iraq ) we were shocked he turned down West Point but COVID was running rampant! He loves Texas A&M and the Core did a great job recruiting him. Plus he is close to home. It is an outstanding program. PLUS THEY BEAT THE HELL OUT OF ALABAMA!105,000 people at Kyle stadium!!! Oh , and, GOD BLESS TEXAS!!!!!

    I'm a 1974 graduate of Texas A&M. My stepson & I visited campus this past year for the Auburn game. It was my first trip back in over in 47 years. I had planned previously to return but something always came up. This time the stars aligned I was able to go. While much was the same, much was different. The campus had grown by leaps & bounds. There were new buildings everywhere, Kyle Field was enormous. Of course some things never change. A howdy was still the greeting, the campus was still immaculate. I then heard The War Hymn live & @ that moment I knew I was home. Once an Aggie, always an Aggie. It's not a sentiment, it's a fact

    It was interesting to see all that Aggie Spirit personified. As for the football hype, many people don't know this but there's a word that describes when the extreme physicality extends for longer than four seconds at a time, and is combined with fluidity of movement and flexibility of action, thinking on one's feet and adapting to an ever-changing environment, and just awesomeness in general. It's called "rugby".
